PLASTER MOCK UP MODEL / MOVIE PROP
Hi Bernie, here are the photos of the Greyhound Silverside. One similar to this one was used in the filming of the movie "War of the Colossal Beast." One picture shows a lobby card from the movie, a video of the movie and a pair of trading cards. I found these show the monster holding the bus up in the air. The bus was full of school kids on a field trip to Griffith observatory. Thanks for the opportunity to show one of my busses, Greyhair.

Very nice silverside. Thanks for sharing it with us! How did you acquire it and can you tell us the approximate dimmensions?
The bus measures 32'' long by 10'' wide by 9'' tall it is made out of plaster with a wood re enforcement frame.I bought this bus at the Pomona auto swapmeet about 20 years ago.Someone who saw it told me they had models like this one on display at some of the Greyhound depots but I can't verify this maybe one of you bus fans remembers.I have many Greyhound busses in my collection Ill share.Grey.
